Discussion
At Halloween, children often
dress up in scary costumes
for fun. Sometimes we hide
behind a corner and try to
scare a friend. We aren’t
afraid when we know
something isn’t real. While
we may not be afraid of the
child in the ghost costume
knocking at the door and
saying “Trick or Treat” each
of us do have real fears.

Even though we all know
that scary Halloween
monsters aren’t real,
sometimes our
imaginations make things
seem real. What are some
things that you are afraid
of? What are some of your
fears?

There are 365 “Fear Nots” in
the Bible – one for every day
of the year. But how do we
deal with the reality of fear in
our lives? The cure for our
fears is to walk closely with
God, who is bigger and more
powerful than anything that
might scare us.
